Kobayashi Hotarou isn't his real name, but I needed to make one for him because it wasn't mentioned in the lyrics.
Thanks to Shelly999999999 for revising this story for me!
Please review if you like it. :)
Kagamine Rin…an angel who had fallen from above. She wandered the streets in hopelessness. A beautiful girl came to her and reached out her hand. The girl smiled gently, her hair glistening in the sunlight. The sun began to set, to be replaced by the cold darkness of the night.
"Are you lost?" she asked.
Rin could only stare at her, captivated in the beauty of this human. Her hair was the color of sapphire blue, and her eyes the color of light-emerald. Her eyes…how enchanting they were. As their eyes met, forbidden feelings started growing within her heart.
How can I feel this way? This girl, she is a human, and I a fallen angel.
Even so, Rin opened Pandora's box, and hell began.
The innocent girl looked at Rin curiously. "Come with me. I'll take care of you."
Rin, touched by her kindness, took her hand and smiled. Tears silently fell down her face.
"Arigato."
The young girl's name was Hatsune Miku. She was a noble with two charitable parents. This was incredibly rare to see. No noble would ever consider sharing their fortune to those of the poor. Her parents both graciously took Rin in, delighted to have another child in their home. After Miku, they could no longer bear any children.
Their home was large and had two stories, with a black piano sitting in the center of one of the rooms upstairs. Miku loved playing in this room; it held joyous memories.
Rin stared in amazement as Miku began playing a song on the piano. A relaxed smile gracing her already beautiful face, soft blue hair swaying slightly. Rin smiled back at Miku, her love for the mortal growing tremendously.
She is so beautiful…I want her to love me.
Miku turned towards her. She stood up and placed her hand gently on Rin's cheek. "What's wrong? You're crying again."
Rin's heart thumped wildly.
"Nothing's wrong," she stammered.
Miku still looked concerned. "Are you sure?"
"Yes."
Using her thumb, she wiped away Rin's tears.
"You must be tired. Let's get you to bed."
Miku led her to one of the rooms. "My room's just across from yours. Come to me whenever you feel distressed, or even if you just want to talk. Okay?"
Rin blushed. "Okay."
Her room is so close to mine. I'm so happy.
"Oh my. I hope you haven't caught a fever," Miku said.
Rin walked inside the room with her following. Miku tucked her into bed and kissed her forehead. "Good night."
She hoped Miku didn't see her blushing face, or hear her loud, beating heart in the darkness of the room.
"Good night."
What she wished for was the forbidden fruit, hidden behind a smile.
All I have to do is destroy everything. I'll surrender myself to the contract of evil if that's what it takes. My love will bear fruit.
The next day, a man whom she'd never seen before entered the house. Miku smiled lovingly at him.
Why are you looking at him like that…?
She looked at Rin. "This is Kobayashi Hotarou, my fiancé."
No…no…no…This can't be happening. Not my beloved Miku. Please. NO.
Rin fought back her tears. She hid behind a mask of joy. "Oh, congratulations to the both of you!"
"Thank you," they both replied graciously.
"How long have you two been engaged?" Rin inquired.
It was Hotarou who answered. "Ever since birth. Our families have always been extremely close, so they decided to marry us off to each other."
"It's…an arranged marriage?"
Mike replied this time. "Oh, no. Nothing of the sort. We love each other very much. If we didn't, I would have never agreed to this marriage."
"Oh."
Jealousy started to arise in her chest.
This man…I won't allow this.
Although Rin thought this, she never tried to interfere with their engagement. She was glad that they were both too young to marry any time soon though. But years passed, and they finally became of age.
